1.
Is VarioUltra a Braille display or a note taker?
VarioUltra is both. Use in Braille display mode when you need to
connect with a computer, a mobile device, or a smartphone. Use it
in note taker mode to access a suite of productivity applications
that include a word processor, spreadsheet viewer, PDF viewer, a
scientific calculator, and more.
2.
What operating systems can interface with VarioUltra?
VarioUltra is compatible with Windows, Mac, Linux, iOS, and
Android operating systems.
3.
What does "simultaneous connectivity" mean?
A feature unique to VarioUltra, simultaneous connectivity is what
we say to describe the ability to connect with up to 5 different
devices at the same time, and to remain connected to them.
VarioUltra has 1 USB connection and 4 Bluetooth connections.
You only have to pair and connect a Bluetooth device once.
Thereafter, VarioUltra will connect to it automatically whenever it
is in range.
Hold the S2 button down on VarioUltra, and tap the B1 key for
USB, or B4, B5, B6, or B8 keys to select one of your paired
Bluetooth devices. Once selected, a message briefly appears on
the Braille display letting you know what you’re connected to.
While connected to a device, anything you type on the Braille
keyboard will be sent to the connected device.
